Subscribers to The New York Times on Nook to Get Free Website access

Barnes & Noble announced today that a New York Times subscription on the Nook just got that much better.

Nook owners will soon get the same website access to The New York Times enjoyed by print, Kindle, smartphone, and iPad subscribers. And it’s free. Like on the Kindle and Kobo, a monthly subscription to The New York Timescost $20 on the Nook.

In the coming weeks, current subscribers will be getting an email more information on how to enjoy free access to NYTimes.com.

So, how long until Kobo makes the same announcement? It’s the only one left out.
